About this episode
In this episode, Ben answers listener questions about growth mindset and the process of letting go at home.
In the first of our new 5x5 series, Ben takes five listener questions on the THINK factor, covering growth mindset, the Fragmented → Focused → Flow framework, and the distillation process behind the CE frameworks we talk about all the time. You'll walk away with a clear process for building a growth mindset in others, a new approach to retaining what you read and listen to, and a reframe on why letting go is the highest-effort move you can make at home. 👉🏼 Get the full Listener's Guide here 🙋🏻♂️ Send us a Question ❤️🔥 Free Newsletter & the Chase Club 👋 New to Chasing Excellence?
